  • Ohhh sheeit

  • That guy has an awesome sweater

  • he was ohhh kakooie

  • Cults, gangs, groupies, and the likes are everywhere. It's getting ridiculous.

  • I thought this had something to do with the rapper Jim Jones smh

  • r.i.p 33 years ago today. nov 18th

  • it is not suicide if someone else shoots you.

  • @Samisadinosaur

    If one takes ones life at his/her request, it's usually considered a suicide/assist-suicide.

  • @chessonmyshirt why do the CIA refuse to release their files on this case?

  • @tlthe5th

    No idea, I was just pointing out the definition of suicide/assist-suicide.

  • @chessonmyshirt well, i don't think you were only doing that. posting it in here means you are attempting to place your statement in context with this vid. come on man, do i really have to say this?

  • @tlthe5th

    No, you don't have to say this because my comment wasn't relevant to the video, my comment was in context to someone else's comment.

    You should know this about youtube, comments in the comment section tend to sway away from the meaning of the video, do I really have to say this?

  • @chessonmyshirt lol! fair enough

  • He was actually applauded at one time In San Francisco as a humanitarian. I had met him once. Once was quite enough for me. He reeked of phoniness. A smile that only the devil could understand. I am not religious by any means - But this man didn't talk God - I got the impression he thought he was God. Nobody in the Castro area was totally shocked by what happen in Guyana. Shocked but not surprised. I don't know if there is a hell - If so, he is there now. God don't need any trash..

  • he was trying to do the best with what he had to go with

  • I wish they would stop calling him "reverend"! He claimed to be atheist!! Satan hates life.

  • Jones was like satan himself. what an unbelievable evil scumbag, faggot.

  • Who needs mind control when you have the influence of money at your disposal. Many in Washington are still under it's hypnotic influence.

  • Still can't believe this happen right where i was born and brought up wat kind od sick person does that

  • No, We are not all GOD's Children.

  • Harold Camping was RIGHT about May 21, click on my channel to see...

  • Thh history noobs they already had an experiment for mind control it's called project MKultra

  • Yes a new Jonestown can happen but only in America or other countries with poor social condition.

  • @globe255 This one happened in Guyana.

  • 911 dead. This number 911 is bad news.

  • marketing destroys more lives eveyday than jim jones ever did.

  • thnxs 4 the post ~ reminds Me to TOS episode ~ the way 2 eden ~ done a decade earlier ~ probably based off of Matt 7:15 +

  • cia brainwash experiment. jim jones was a puppet. notice the gaze of the woman who lived through it as she pauses repeatedly. She is in an altered state of conciousness and truly believes what she is saying, however memories are planted just as all the other "handfull" of survivors who only survived so they can tell the story the cia want them to tell. criticize my remarks but it is true. this may conflict with what the media has told u, but i believe it to be true. i'm entitled to my opinion.

  • this is upset me

  • Do people read there Bibles

  • Comment removed

  • Thumbs up if you had to sift through all that crap about jimjones that filthy rapper to get to the real jim jones.

  • I have been BETRAYED I have been so teriblely BETRAYED

  • Hollywood could not have created a more horrifying movie.

  • Jim Jones is obviously an evil man. He killed people and was an atheist in his later years.

  • Comment removed

  • @pigletized i'm not sure i understand what you're saying. do you believe the official version or not? i did other videos about jonestown that has a lot of info that's not generally known

  • @tlthe5th I did about 8 months of daily research before writting a paper on the topic for a college class. The reseach included listening to every recorded tape of Jones and his followers as well as raeding every transcript word for word. That is the only way one can form a true opinion, not by a movie or a news story on tv. People are very quick to judge. In brevity Jones town failed for 3 reasons. Over-population, Refusal to give up the child, Jones was sick. Nothing to do with religion.

  • "that proves that religion is false" followed by "we are all god's children". Hmmm,,,sounds like religion to me. "Love should be our religion". But you just said all religion is false. That means love is false. That proves that you are the devil. 

  • Most of the people were injected with cyanide as far as I know. JJ had connections to US intel agencies.

  • he is crazy.... i bet hes in hell

  • Google Jonestown cia

  • Comment removed

  • 'Jesuit Priest'? WTF? No he wasn't, he was an addled, drug addicted, confused communist wannabe turned mass-murderer

  • In a land where children are stolen and sold, these people just haply commit suicide, especially the congressman and senators at the airport. NO!

  • @GameOver1260 But the Children where murded.

  • Jonestown was a massacre, not a mass suicide. Jones had armed guards with guns on the perimeter of the cyanide tanks, and killed the kids before the parents, so they would take it as well.

  • i know this is late but can someone explain to me exactly what happend in like a few words i have to do somthing for school.....

  • something dosent make sense on this if some of them were shot why are there no gunshots on the death tape? someone please explain that angle of the theory please

  • ftw n peace to us all!!!!!!

  • I wonder what happened to those armed guards? Is their number published or is it secret?

  • @Annafin62 They also drank the poison. Some people were that loyal to Jones

  • OK I did not know he was a Jesuit, or even Catholic. First I heard of this. Just went looking up Jesuits & saw that there was a new 'black pope'. i didnt know the old one had died. So I click to Adolfo Nicolás (new one) .. first fucking thing I thought of when I saw his picture was Jim Jones. He looks like an older , aged Jim Jones!!  Except for the teeth. I haven't seen very clear picture of Jim Jones smiling, but from the pics I have seen, his teeth were pretty straight, or possibly dentures.

  • Hitler took 9 million to his grave (that's just the German death count). Jones was a light weight...

  • if the congressman knew he was going there to investigate people held against their will, he should have taken an entourage of mercenaries, armed guards, sylvester stalone, something, you know?

  • This was not mass suicide, it was mass murder. This is the first real glimpse I have had at the volume of hypodermic needles involved. There was great opposition to Jones and now I understand how it was snuffed out so quietly. If you listen to the tapes a woman refuses and verbally spars with Jones, then all of the sudden she is gone. Notice the bodies arm in arm face down, that was staged and they were forced faced down before injected. No one would drink and then lay face down arm in arm.

  • @nucsol interesting 

  • You can't make FACT or DECLASSIFY anything from "RUMORS!"

    This is a solid case of people losing touch with reality and an example of what happens when you take away peoples ability to make their own life choices. The three people that escaped held their children and family in there arms as they died. They never attempted to rise up against what they knew was wrong!

    How would threatening someone with a gun work when you are forcing them to commit suicide?

  • "911 died" ....????

  • what happened was they went over there and tried to take there children..the newsreporter gave the note from a follower for help.. and that enraged a psycotic jones..who carried out the murder of all those ppl.. he felt betrayed..so he wanted to feel e power and community of all dieing together,,,by choice,not by hands of gov...

    he was right they would have parachuted in and burned them up like they did waco.. he was evil homosexual.so its not like he was great pers just mind control

  • A guy named Bernard Poolman is trying to set up such cult in South Africa at the moment.

  • paradice = =  sicks

  • he was a monster

  • you dumbass basement conspirators are creepy.

    ewww, look mommy conspirators :0

  • Comment removed

  • i vote for maniac.

  • the cia enjoys killing black people,nuff said.

  • Pure stupidity. 

  • @tlthe5th Yes, people lie about alot of things, but the government doesn't lie about trivial matters like Jonestown numbers. And honestly, if they did, I wouldn't really care.

  • Jim Jones = Epic Mindfuck = My Inspiration.

  • This Jim Jones game can only happen in a strong religious country. Thats why it happened in USA.

  • This is not complicated or a grand conspiracy - from the beginning of time, there have been people who need to lead, and many people who need to belong and therefore, follow.

  • nice infomercial actors... where'd they get those fucking sweaters?

  • There are many modern day versions of Jim Jones, those arabs recruiting those young vulnerable Muslims in the west to become terrorist.

  • it's sad how this day has been so easily forgotten from the minds of so many...

    this should remian in the minds and should get news covereage and hommage on the day where children and people died at the hands of a killer

  • America....No caring for human or animal life, minimum capitalistic wages, exploitation...shit. Hatred toward the elderly unless they are rich.

  • what mind control MK ultra paper clip wich means president truman approved hittlers top scientists into the united states?

  • que cara desgraçado até criança ele matou. essas seitas evangélicas deveriam ser proibidas com prisão para esses pastores que se acham dono da verdade e essas pessoas que frequentam são mais sem vergonha.

  • Osho's commune can't be compared AT ALL to Jonestown. PERIOD.

  • Apparently 500 of the repatriated bodies were never claimed, why? Why didn't these people's family members claim their bodies for a proper funeral?

  • so what if few hundreds died in Jonestown ..Judaism ,Christianity ,and Islam did it with millions

  • JIM JONES is SCREAMING for eternity! That SICK BASTARD.. He's getting what he deserves! HA!!!

  • The Jonestown barracks had actually been built by Foreign Legion engineers to prepare an ethical cleansing of the local tribes. The genocide plan was waived, so the barracks became useless for the French. A pal of Jim Jones, who had heard about this, during his work for the CIA, told Jones, that the housing could be bought cheaply.

    Jim Jones used the solid craftmanship of the huts to impress his followers, by claiming the Peoples Church had built them.

  • The US government is holding my balls and the more I try to escape, the tighter they grip.

  • what if they poisoned his stuff and then come in shooting. When finished it's like "Oh look they all killed themselves"

  • This is the bullshit talk show hosts like that bitch and that faggot thrive on and to make a shit load of monet to spend on their illigitimate children. No wonder Amerika is rotting!

  • this makes you want to throw up? how about that intro music on a serious video, haha

  • this makes me want to throw up.

  • @wildpup556 i actually did throw up when i watch the doctumentary

  • Natural Selection! Also Leo Ryan was a jaded asshole! Travels with no security! Has a hand shaking ,photo op instead of taking off as soon as possible. Fact is most people "especially now" are hopeless idiots and assholes who need to follow something in order to deal with life.

  • @le238man That wasn't Ryan for the hand shake photo op that was Richard Dwyer the CIA station chief who accompanied Ryan on the trip. Dwyer was identified as a State Dept rep but he wasn't. The security issue is an open one although I'm assuming that Ryan felt it wasn't necessary or that he may have been promised something when he arrived.

  • Thankfully today we are led in America by a young man who has no interest in becoming an historic figure. The days of mass killing have passed.

    Thank God.

  • This is happening now! Deception is the ultimate key in this Capitalist society. Don't be afraid! Stay quiet and enjoy the fruits! What?! What will you do?

  • jim jones is a evil son of a bicth and that in hell.

  • Well, at least he's out of our misery.

  • Jim's an asshole. Thats the bottomline couldnt say any more.

  • So many humans Destroyed!

  • this just proves that Religion is false. Religion is no different from the government. Everybody wants to be a hitler now a days. Yes the government is corrupt but that dosent make religion CLEAN CUT just because it involves God. Jesus Christ himself hated religion because it was used for the wrong purpose. It separated people rather than bringing people together. We are all Gods children and Love should be our religion. Unconditional love!

    Peace....

  • @GoIntricateOnerous jim jones did not believe in God ...he believed in a heaven on earth just like every other communist workers utopia....you see the dead bodies.....that's communism...the audio is out there people just dig a little further.

  • @GoIntricateOnerous religion isn't false. Religion is just a set of beliefs. I agree that the government is corrupt. Jesus did not hate religion. Jesus wants us to be followers if Him and have a relationship with Him. God bless.

  • @GoIntricateOnerous Jim Jones was a madman, who did NOT preach the gospel of Christ but against it. Jones also preached anti-government ideology. Jones was also just the epitome of evil. Because most of these folks were murdered, not self immolated.

  • @GoIntricateOnerous but if there is no religion ppl like him would never burn in hell for the rest of eternity

    may all evil burn in hell for the rest of eternity

  • @GoIntricateOnerous Jesus Christ hated religion?

    You are an idiot.

    Jesus may not have been fond of religion at the time of his life, but he did not hate it.

    Just because YOUR mind functions, don't assume that it is functioning properly.

  • @GoIntricateOnerous you make no fcking sense you said" Religion is false. Religion is no different from the government." and then you said"We are all Gods children and Love should be our religion so your saying theres no such thing as religion and then saying there is one?! and fuck you Jesus didnt use religion for the wrong reasons. If you knew the facts Jesus Christ is God

  • @GoIntricateOnerous this incident is about as representative of religion as Stalin was to communism.

    Though it seems your rant was about "organized religion" or "the church", just had to put the above statement out there though.

  • Grace Stoen is an idiot. How the hell can you let a f@cking madman have custody of your child? Her and her husband need to look at themselves in the mirror everyday and remember what happened.

  • Is this the mathematician John F. Nash at the right in the picture at 03:01?

  • shouldn't be called a Church

  • It should absolutely be called a church and people should take note.

  • so far what i c is that the ppl talking about him don't seem like real ppl, like actors mostly...

  • Jonestown was a mind control installation , and experiment in setting up a torture facility to create mkultra slaves. The Peoples Temple also owned 6 California orphanages, a ranch for the mentally disabled, and virtually ran Mendocino State Hospital, which conducted LSD experiments , electroshock , and other mkultra experiments on people.

  • A warlock?

  • How on earth could the CIA be involved? Jim Jones controlled everything. The only way the CIA could have had any influence, was if Jim Jones was part of the CIA. That's fucking laughable.

  • MKultra didnt stop. It moved from the prisons and hospitals to religion. Thats how. Look it up.

  • jim jones put christians in their place.

    i say he's a good man.

  • lol

  • did this duosche bag commit suicide too, or what the fuck happened to him

  • Yeah he shot himself.

  • no,someone shot him.

    despite what happended and all these fights on here, i think we can all agree that jim jones is one twisted mofo.

  • all you people talking about spiritual leaders not being meurderers are conplet "NUTTERS" 900 oad people dead sum cu*t was doing sank rong dont you thnk

  • Dude go back and read what you wrote. were you high or what I can't make out what you are trying to say. this is for iambigbore

  • What Thee Hell thiss is crazy :O ! what a completee faggot jim jones was . honestly im sure people could have left but were just didnt want too. nd whats that all about theee cia? arnt they ment too help uss?

  • He give those people freedom just like Bush spread freedom around the World, so ask yourself are you a freedom hater or a freedom lover!!

  • Look out for a group/CULT called UNIFIED TRIBE. They are a subdued cult, based out of Las Vegas, Nevada. The leader is Magic Mendez. Magic tells women of the group that he can help them spiritually by having sex with them. I WAS in the group and he destroyed many relationships, marriages and families by his subtle control tactics. Beware.

  • not all spiritual leaders are murderers just because they are spritual leaders. To putt osho in one line with Jim Jones shows ignorance. Osho always said to people to think for themselfs and preached freedom. He never indoctrinate people or brainwashed them. Its this kind of ignorance that drives people to lunatics in the first place. Amerika is still the land of stupid believsystems that are even in encouraged by the gouverment.

  • remember the media is controled by the government. they can protray other cults as however they want to. There is Deffantly more, then whats meets the eye here

  • A question on there being no signs of cyanide rictus in the Jonestown victims: Were there not reports that there were also mass amounts of benzodiazapine and opiate narcotics in the Flavor-aid? Would this in any way counter act the contortion and spasms associated with cyanide poisoning?

    I have never doubted Government involvement with this tragedy, I also like to have all of the facts at my disposal.

  • [never doubted Government involvement]

    Government involvement? No poison? Just listen to the complete audio recordings of the event. If you can hold down your cookies, it is pretty apparent what the basic problem here was. People willing to set aside rational thought and replace it with religion mixed with an insane ego-maniacal Daffy Duck sounding idiot. As far as I'm concerned the people could do it again, but the kids... I honestly get ill listening to the recordings.

  • does someone knows whats the name of the music

  • Ms. Speier was absolutely correct when she stated that there will be another "Jonestown" in the United States. For instance, the Branch Davidian cult in 1993 and the Heaven's Gate cult in 1997.

  • she "knew" about it because the government is the one that creates all this garbage. the government want only "mainstream" religions. they feel they have a right to say what religion is acceptable and which ones aren't. the government MURDERED the branch davidians in cold blood. do a little research. the local sheriff said the davidians were "good people" and he lived around them and knew them best. dont be so naive. there's more to this whole thing. please watch the video responses above..

  • @Irresistably4Tee

    The most mysterious connection that Jim Jones had was his childhood friend, Dan Mitrione. Mitrione later became Chief of the Richmond PD... Mitrione was later was recruited into the CIA, under State Department cover, in May of 1960, and was trained in counter-insurgency and torture techniques. Coincidentally, Mitrione had traveled to Brazil as an OPS adviser at the U.S. Consulate not long before Jones had arrived.

  • Shame, he ifrom my home town.......Burried at Earham College.......Just goes to show what you can convince the sheep to do!

  • Jim Jones is buried at Earham College?

  • please don't fucking call them sheep. to the people who knew and cared about some of those people i cant even tell you how much that hurts.

  • i hate when stupid people think its secret government controlled

    or whatev

    its so stupid

    maybe some things are

    but i hate it when people start thinking that everything is a secret government operation

  • Especially when these people are ignorant and pretty much have no idea what they're talking about. I think these conspiracy ideas are made up from one idiot with no proof of anything and when they go preaching their bullshit and one person points out the obvious fact of them having no proof they say something along the lines of "You're a tool of the government! Open your eyes pawn!" basically ignoring the fact that they have no proof of the conspiracy or any motive for the government to have.

  • If he was in front of me right now

    I would sock his face then spit in his eye

    and then let him burn in cow shit and fire!!

  • name of the music Please

  • You don't know me, but trust me; The Company was in no way interested in Jim Jones. Truth is, Jones was an amateur in the science of mind control. The CIA was light years ahead of that piker Jones with regard to mind control techniques. Get my "drift"?

  • i feel sorry for the childrens :(

  • I have one question though, why is an Atheist communist a reverend? Jones admitted to be an Atheist and Communist, so how is he considered a reverend?

  • because, this whole thing was meant to be confusing.

  • Huh? So he meant to trick everyone? I remember the first time someone claimed that Christians were delusional because of this, I did an study on him, and I realized the greatest lawyer of all time (Lionel Luckhoo) in Guyana was his attorney, Luckhoo said he was an Atheist Communist.

    I'm still confused, can you help?

  • jonestown was a multifaceted CIA operation. It had several important goals. one, to make dissident groups look dangerous and crazy. Two, to make Christian groups look crazy and dangerous. Especially those who want to create a community as did the first church we can read about in Acts in the Bible. Three, now when people are labeled a "cult" it makes people think of Jonestown. It's their branding iron to mark out people that wont go along with this world system. That's just a few points

  • I heard that Jim Jones admired Marx, Lenin and Mao and his built his religious commune in Guyana on a socialist-Marxist vision. At one point Jones even gave some thought (but not seriously) of moving his People's temple cult to the Soviet Union.

  • @ogirv101: See "liberation theology", and "infiltration".

  • jim jones obviously was a C.I.A operative and jonestown was a government black project to curb freedom movements and civil disobediance in america and it worked after the jonestown tragedy freedom movements and demonstrations stoped.

  • he must be on hell right now

  • So what is it that you are saying?

  • I'm sharing with others what i discovered. That there's more to this story than is generally known.

  • change we can believe in

  • The guy had all these powers, controling 900 people. Why decide to kill everybody instead of just continue be his own king?

  • wuts this song in the beginning?

    ...and oh ya fuck JJ

  • jim jones was a terrible excuse for a human he was an animal its too disturbing to me.i hope he suffered before he died

  • i hope the gushot he got wasnt self inflicted..dan..ny

  • great

  • Jim Jones is an O.G!

  • What a horrible person... This man deserves to burn, forever, the people who follows him, did not follow one of the most important commandements.

  • She completely mispronounced "Oregon". This is how it is supposed to sound: Or -A-Gun

  • who cares

  • Captain

    LOL that Oregon Comment was funny but just not right!

  • Why did the people go to it if they were beaten? Couldn't they just kick him in the nuts.

  • LOL

  • A lot of weak minded people controled by a paranoid weak minded man. In some religions it is a mortal sin to take your own life and you will go to hell if you do commit suicide. I follow no one except God and read the gospels from the bible not from someone who claims to know God personally or can bring someone closer to God. Seriously have a mind of your own and give your heart and soul to God... duh

  • i watched a document on jonestown in school, and it was horrible! jim jones was a horrible man! not even a man, a coward. They said it was a mass "suicide" in all actualities, it was a mass murder. They didnt give there lives, their lives were taken . they were forced to die

  • Comment removed

  • Jesus himself warned of false prophets in last days, wearing sheeps clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. He said there will arise false prophets in end days deceiving many. Jim Jones is proving King James Bible to be true, by him fulfilling the scriptures of false prophets.

  • Well said...I'm not sure why you have been getting negative ratings though. He definately was one of many false prophets, using the Word of God to gain fame/ achieve their dreams. I'm not quite sure if its a sign of the end times though...false prophets have been around since the real prophets. Be well randyclar747

  • very true..idk why people are giving u thumbs down.

  • very well compiled clip & very informative.

    well done!

    RIP jonestown;

    X

  • Wow there was alot missing from the story like the children being taken first and killed. Also how was it that the 2 survived if everyone drank at the same time then how would resisters be shot. Also listening to the tape of the final 44 min. there was no gun shot sound at all so how was there a gun shot in his head...hmmm

  • A MAN OF GOD?! A RAPIST A HOMOSEXUAL RAPIST AND A KILLER!!!! THIS GUY WAS CRAZY GOOD THING HE IS DEAD! the sad thing is the good people went with him...

  • Nope he when to hell and they when to heaven. I hope im right.

  • I am hoping as well.

  • like most crackers

  • omg, listen when she sais 70 people, it's like if 70 people dies it doesn't matter

  • haha she's like " at first i thought it was only 70" ONLY!!!

  • Any of y'all guys know that Jim Jones' grandson was a high school prospect that attends the University of San Diego! Its true if y'all dont believe me then check out espn's outside the lines titled the game of their lives
